President. when this measure Was before this body last year I expressed myself i5 ilost positive terms and with all the earnestness of illy nature as being unequivocally opposed to it. and I am1 now gratified to see that the President of the United States has seen fit to seld his veto to this hody. As a selfrespecting citizen and as an American I could not vote at this crisis to override the Presidents veto of this imeasure. As a principle I am opposed to it.. I insist that the literacy test has accomplislied nothing of good and that it can accolmplisll nothing of good in tile ilatter NAYS9. OGorman Shivelv Paynter Smith. Mich.
